by CONTRACTOR to OWNER.
OWNER May Correll Defective Work:
13.14. If CONTRACTOR fails within a reasonable time
after written notice from ENGINEER to correct defective
Work or to remove and replace rejected Work as required
by ENGINEER in accordance with paragraph 13.11, or if
CONTRACTOR fails to perform the Work in accordance

to comply with any other provision of the Contract
Documents, OWNER may, after seven days' written
notice to CONTRACTOR, correct and remedy any such
deficiency. In exercising the rights and remedies under
this paragraph OWNER shall proceed expeditiously. In

Milestones) because of any delay in performance of the
Work attributable to the exercise by OWNER of OWNER'S
rights and remedies hereunder.
ARTICLE 14--PAYMENTS TO CONTRACTOR AND
COMPLETION
schedule of Values:
14.1. The schedule of values established as provided in
paragraph 2.9 will serve as the basis for progress payments
and will be incorporated into a form of Application for
Payment acceptable to ENGINEER. Progress payments on
account of Unit Price Work will be based on the number of
units completed.
Application for Progress Payment:
14.2. At least twenty days before the date established for
each progress payment (but not more often than once a
month), CONTRACTOR shall submit to ENGINEER for
review an Application for Payment filled out and signed by
CONTRACTOR covering the Work completed as of the
date of the Application and accompanied by such
supporting documentation as is required by the Contract
Documents. If payment is requested on the basis of
materials and equipment not incorporated in the Work but
delivered and suitably Stored at the site or at another
location agreed to in writing, the Application for Payment
shall also be accompanied by a bill of sale, invoice or other
documentation warranting that OWNER has received the
materials and equipment free and clear of all Liens and
evidence that the materials and equipment are covered by
appropriate property insurance and other arrangements to
protect OWNER's interest therein, all of which will be
satisfactory to OWNER. The amount of retainage with
respect to progress payments will be as stipulated in the
Agreement. Any funds that are withheld by the OWNER
shall not be subject to substitution by the CONTRACTOR
with securities or any arrangements involving an escrow or
custodianship. By executing the gollication for payment
form the CONTRACTOR exoressly waives his rieht to the
benefits of Colorado Revised Statutes, Section 24-91-101,
e"Se
CONTRACTOR's Warranty of Title:
14.3. CONTRACTOR warrants and guarantees that title
to all Work, materials and equipment covered by any
Application for Payment, whether incorporated in the
Project or not, will pass to OWNER no later than the time
of payment free and clear of all Liens.
Review of Applications for Progress Payment:
14A. ENGINEER will, within ten days after receipt of
each Application for Payment, either indicate in writing a
EICDC GENERAL. CONDITIONS 1910-8 (1990 Editim)
w/ CITY OF FORT COLLINS MODIFICATIONS (REV 4/2000)
recommendation of payment and present the Application
to OWNER, or return the Application to CONTRACTOR
indicating in writing ENGINEER's reasons for refusing to
recommend payment. In the latter case, CONTRACTOR
may make the necessary corrections and resubmit the
Application. Ten days after presentation of the
Application for Payment to OWNER with ENGINEER's
recommendation, the amount recommended will (subject
to the provisions of the last sentence of paragraph 14.7)
become due and when due will be paid by OWNER to
CONTRACTOR
14.5. ENGINEER's recommendation of any payment
requested in an Application for Payment will constitute a
representation by ENGINEER to OWNER, based on
ENGINEER's on -site observations of the executed Work
as an experienced and qualified design professional and on
ENGINEER's review of the Application for Payment and
the accompanying data and schedules, that to the best of
ENGINEER'S knowledge, information and belief.
14.5.1. the Work has progressed to the point
indicated,
14.5.2. the quality of the Work is generally in
accordance with the Contract Documents (subject to
an evaluation of the Work as a functioning whole
prior to or upon Substantial Completion, to the results
of any subsequent tests called for in the Contract
Documents, to a final determination of quantities and
classifications for Unit Price Work under
paragraph 9.10, and to any other qualifications stated
in the recommendation), and
14.5.3. the conditions precedent to
CONTRACTOR's being entitled to such payment
appear to have been fulfilled insofar as it is
ENGINEER's responsibility to observe the Work.
However, by recommending any such payment
ENGINEER will not thereby be deemed to have
represented that: (i) exhaustive or continuous on -site
inspections have been made to check the quality or the
quantity of the Work beyond the responsibilities
specifically assigned to ENGINEER in the Contract
Documents or (ii) that there may not be other matters or
issues between the parties that might entitle
CONTRACTOR to be paid additionally by OWNER or
entitle OWNER to withhold payment to CONTRACTOR.
14.6. ENGINEER's recommendation of any payment,
including final payment, shall not mean that ENGINEER
is responsible for CONTRACTOR's means, methods,
techniques, sequences or procedures of construction, or
the safety precautions and programs incident thereto, or
for any failure of CONTRACTOR to comply with Laws
and Regulations applicable to the furnishing or
performance of Work, or for any failure of
CONTRACTOR to perform or furnish Work in
accordance with the Contract Documents.
14.7. ENGINEER may refuse to recommend the whole
or any part of any payment if, in ENGINEER's opinion, it
would be incorrect to make the representations to
29
OWNER referred to in paragraph 14.5. ENGINEER may
also refuse to recommend any such payment, or, because of
subsequently discovered evidence or the results of
subsequent inspections or tests, nullify any such payment
previously recommended, to such extent as may be
necessary in ENGINEER's opinion to protect OWNER
from loss because:
14.7.1. the Work is defective, or completed Work has
been damaged requiring correction or replacement,
14.7.2. the Contract Price has been reduced by
Written Amendment or Change Order,
14.7.3. OWNER has been required to correct
defective Work or complete Work in accordance with
paragraph 13.14, or
14.7.4. ENGINEER has actual knowledge of the
occurrence of any of the events enumerated in
paragraphs 15.2.1 through 15.2.4 inclusive.
OWNER may refuse to make payment of the full amount
recommended by ENGINEER because:
14.7.5. claims have been made against OWNER on
account of CONTRACTOR's performance or furnishing
of the Work,
14.7.6. Liens have been filed in connection with the
Work, except where CONTRACTOR has delivered a
specific Bond satisfactory to OWNER to secure the
satisfaction and discharge of such Liens,
14.7.7. there are other items entitling OWNER to a set-
off against the amount recommended, or
14.7.8. OWNER has actual knowledge of the
occurrence of any of the events enumerated in
paragraphs 14.7.1 through 14.7.3 or paragraphs 15.2.1
through 15.2.4 inclusive;
but OWNER must give CONTRACTOR immediate
written notice (with a copy to ENGINEER) stating the
reasons for such action and promptly pay CONTRACTOR
the amount so withheld, or any adjustment thereto agreed
to by OWNER and CONTRACTOR, when
CONTRACTOR corrects to OWNER's satisfaction the
reasons for such action.
Substantial Completion:
14.8. When CONTRACTOR considers the entire Work
ready for its intended use CONTRACTOR shall notify
OWNER and ENGINEER in writing that the entire Wok
is substantially complete (except for items specifically
listed by CONTRACTOR as incomplete) and request that
ENGINEER issue a certificate of Substantial Completion.
Within a reasonable time thereafter, OWNER,
CONTRACTOR and ENGINEER shall make an inspection
of the Work to determine the status of completion. If
ENGINEER does not consider the Work substantially
complete, ENGINEER will notify CONTRACTOR in
writing giving the reasons therefor. If ENGINEER
30 MCDCc>E ERALCONDITIONS1910-apv90Edtim)
w/ CITY OF FORT COLLINS MODIFICATIONS (REV 4/2000)
considers the Work substantially complete, ENGINEER
will prepare and deliver to OWNER a tentative certificate
of Substantial Completion which shall fix the date of
Substantial Completion. There shall be attached to the
certificate a tentative list of items to be completed or
corrected before final payment. OWNER shall have seven
days after receipt of the tentative certificate during which
to make written objection to ENGINEER as to any
provisions of the certificate o attached list. If, after
considering such objections, ENGINEER concludes that
the Work is not substantially complete, ENGINEER will
within fourteen days after submission of the tentative
certificate to OWNER notify CONTRACTOR in writing,
stating the reasons therefor. If, after consideration of
OWNER's objections, ENGINEER considers the Work
substantially complete, ENGINEER will within said
fourteen days execute and deliver to OWNER and
CONTRACTOR a definitive certificate of Substantial
Completion (with a revised tentative list of items to be
completed or corrected) reflecting such changes from the
tentative certificate as ENGINEER believes justified after
consideration of any objections from OWNER. At the
time of delivery of the tentative certificate of Substantial
Completion ENGINEER will deliver to OWNER and
CONTRACTOR a written recommendation as to division
of responsibilities pending final payment between
OWNER and CONTRACTOR with respect to security,
Operation, safety, maintenance, heat, utilities, insurance
and warranties and guarantees. Unless OWNER and
CONTRACTOR agree otherwise in writing and so inform
ENGINEER in writing prior to ENGINEER's issuing the
definitive certificate of Substantial Completion,
ENGINEER's aforesaid recommendation will be binding
on OWNER and CONTRACTOR until final payment.
14.9. OWNER shall have the right to exclude
CONTRACTOR from the Wok after the date of
Substantial Completion, but OWNER shall allow
CONTRACTOR reasonable access to complete or correct
items on the tentative list
Partial Utilization:
14.10. Use by OWNER at OWNER's option of any
substantially completed part of the Work, which: (i) has
specifically been identified in the Contract Documents, or
(n)OWNER, ENGINEER and CONTRACTOR agree
constitutes a separately functioning and usable part of the
Work that can be used by OWNER for its intended
purpose without significant interference with
CONTRACTOR'S performance of the remainder of the
Wok, may be accomplished prior to Substantial
Completion of all the Wok subject to the following:
14.10.1.OWNER at any time may request
CONTRACTOR in writing to permit OWNER to use
any such part of the Work which OWNER believes to
be ready for its intended use and substantially
complete. If CONTRACTOR agrees that such part of
the Wok is substantially complete, CONTRACTOR
will certify to OWNER and ENGINEER that such
part of the Work is substantially complete and request
ENGINEER to issue a certificate of Substantial
Completion for that part of the Work.
CONTRACTOR at any time may notify OWNER and
ENGINEER in writing that CONTRACTOR consider;
any such part of the Work ready for its intended use
and substantially complete and request ENGINEER to
issue a certificate of Substantial Completion for that
part of the Work. Within a reasonable time after either
such request, OWNER, CONTRACTOR and
ENGINEFR shall make an inspection of that part of
the Work to determine its status of completion. If
ENGINEER does not consider that part of the Work to
be substantially complete, ENGINEER will notify
OWNER and CONTRACTOR in writing giving the
reasons therefor. If ENGINEER considers that part of
the Work to be substantially complete, the provisions
of paragraphs 14.8 and 14.9 will apply with respect to
certification of Substantial Completion of that part of
the Work and the division of responsibility in respect
thereof and access thereto.
14.10.2. No occupancy or separate operation of part
of the Work will be accomplished prior to compliance
with the requirements of paragraph 5.15 in respect of
property insurance.
Final Inspection:
14.11. Upon written notice from CONTRACTOR that the
entire Work or an agreed portion thereof is complete,
ENGINEER will make a final inspection with OWNER
and CONTRACTOR and will notify CONTRACTOR in
writing of all particulars in which this inspection reveals
that the Work is incomplete or defective. CONTRACTOR
shall immediately take such measures as are necessary to
complete such work or remedy such deficiencies.
Final Application for Payment:
14.12. After CONTRACTOR has completed all such
corrections to the satisfaction of ENGINEER and delivered
in accordance with the Contract Documents all
maintenance and operating instructions, schedules,
guarantees, Bonds, certificates or other evidence of
insurance required by paragraph 5.4, certificates of
inspection, marked -up record documents (as provided in
paragraph 6.19) and other documents, CONTRACTOR
may make application for final payment following the
procedure for progress payments. The final Application for
Payment shall be accompanied (except as previously
delivered) by: (i) all documentation called for in the
Contract Documents, including but not limited to the
evidence of insurance required by subparagraph5.4.13,
(ii) consent of the surety, if any, to final payment, and
(iii) complete and legally effective releases or waivers
(satisfactory to OWNER) of all Liens arising out of or filed
in connection with the Work. In lieu of such releases or
waivers of Liens and as approved by OWNER
CONTRACTOR may furnish receipts or releases in full

receipts include all labor, services, material and equipment
for which a Lien could be filed, and (ii) all payrolls,
material and equipment bills, and other indebtedness
connected with the Work for which OWNER or OWNER's
property m ight in any way be responsible have been paid or
otherwise satisfied. If any Subcontractor or Supplier fails
EJCDC GENERAL CONDITIONS 1910-5 (1990 MUM)

any Lien Releases or waivers of liens and the consent of
the surety to finalize payment are to be submitted on
forms conforming to the format of the OWNER'S standard
forms bound in the Project in anual.

and accompanying documentation as required by the
Contract Documents, ENGINEER is satisfied that the
Work has been completed and CONTRACTOR's other
obligations under the Contract Documents have been
fulfilled, ENGINEER will, within ten days after receipt of
the final Application for Payment, indicate in writing
ENGINEER's recommendation of payment and present
the Application to OWNER for payment. At the same
time ENGINEER will also give written notice to OWNER
and CONTRACTOR that the Work is acceptable subject
to the provisions of paragraph 14.15. Otherwise,
ENGINEER will return the Application to
CONTRACTOR, indicating in writing the reasons for
refusing to recommend final payment, in which case
CONTRACTOR shall make the necessary corrections and
resubmit the Application. Thirty days after presentation to
OWNER of the Application and accompanying
documentation, in appropriate form and substance and
with ENGINEER's recommendation and notice of
acceptability, the amount recommended by ENGINEER
will become due and will be paid by OWNER to
CONTRACTOR subject to paragraph 17.6.2 of these
General Conditions.

completion of the Work is significantly delayed and if
ENGINEER so confirms, OWNER shall, upon receipt of
CONTRACTOR's final Application for Payment and
recommendation of ENGINEER, and without terminating
the Agreement, make payment of the balance due for that
portion of the Work fully completed and accepted. If the
remaining balance to be held by OWNER for Work not
fully completed or corrected is less than the retainage
stipulated in the Agreement, and if Bonds have been
furnished as required in paragraph 5.1, the written consent
of the surety to the payment of the balance due for that
portion of the Work fully completed and accepted shall be
submitted by CONTRACTOR to ENGINEER with the

consent to arbitrate entered into in accordance herewith as
provided in this Article 16 will be specifically enforceable
under the prevailing law of any court having jurisdiction.
16.2. No demand for arbitration of any claim, dispute
or other matter that is required to be referred to
ENGINEER initially for decision in accordance with
paragraph 9.11 will be made until the earlier of (a) the date
on which ENGINEER has rendered a written decision or
(b) the thirty-first day after the parties have presented their
evidence to ENGINEER if a written decision has not been
rendered by ENGINEER before that date. No demand for
arbitration of any such claim, dispute or other matter will
be made later than thirty days after the date on which
ENGINEER has rendered a written decision in respect
thereof in accordance with paragraph 9.11; and the failure
to demand arbitration within said thirty days' period will
result in ENGINEER's decision being final and binding

initiated, such decision may be entered as evidence but will
not supersede the arbitration proceedings, except where the
decision is acceptable to the parties concerned. No demand

period specified in paragraph 16.2 as applicable, and in all
other cases within a reasonable time after the claim, dispute
or other matter in question has arisen, and in no event shall
any such demand be made after the date when institution of
legal or equitable proceedings based on such claim, dispute
or other matter in question would be barred by the
applicable statute of limitations.
16.4. Except as provided in paragraph 16.5 below,
no arbitration arising out of or relating to the Contract
Documents shall include by consolidation, joinder or in any
other manner any other person or entity (including
ENGINEER, ENGINEER's Consultant and the officers,
directors, agents, employees or consultants of any of them)
who is not a party to this contract unless:
16.4.1. the inclusion of such other person or entity is
necessary if complete relief is to be afforded among
those who are already parties to the arbitration, and
16.4.2. suchother person or entity is substantially
involved in a question of law or fact which is common
to those who are already parties to the arbitration and
which will arise in such proceedings, and
16.4.3. the written consent of the other person or
entity sought to be included and of OWNER and
CONTRACTOR has been obtained for such inclusion,
which consent shall make specific reference to this
paragraph; but no such consent shall constitute consent
to arbitration of any dispute not specifically described
in such consent or to arbitration with any party not
specifically identified in such consent.
16.5. Notwithstanding paragraph 16.4, if a claim,
dispute or other matter in question between OWNER and
CONTRACTOR involves the Work of a Subcontractor,
either OWNER or CONTRACTOR may join such
Subcontractor as a party to the arbitration between OWNER
and CONTRACTOR hereunder. CONTRACTOR shall
include in all subcontracts required by paragraph 6.11 a
specific provision whereby the Subcontractor consents to
being joined in an arbitration between OWNER and
CONTRACTOR involving the Weak of such
Subcontractor. Nothing in this paragraph 16.5 nor in the
provision of such subcontract consenting to joinder shall
create any claim, right or cause of action in favor of
Subcontractor and against OWNER, ENGINEER or
ENGINEER's Consultants that does not otherwise exist.
16.6. The award rendered by the arbitrators will be
final, judgment may be entered upon it in any court having
jurisdiction thereof, and it will not be subject to
modification or appeal.
16.7. OWNER and CONTRACTOR agree that they
shall first submit any and all unsettled claims,
counterclaims, disputes and other matters in question
between them arising out of or relating to the Contract
Documents or the breach thereof ("disputes"), to mediation
by the American Arbitration Association under the
Construction Industry Mediation Rules of the American
Arbitration Association prior to either of them initiating
against the other a demand for arbitration pursuant to
paragraphs 16.1 through 16.6, unless delay in initiating
arbitration would irrevocably prejudice one of the parties.
The respective thirty and ten day time limits within which
to file a demand for arbitration as provided in paragraphs
16.2 and 16.3 above shall be suspended with respect to a
dispute submitted to mediation within those same
applicable time limits and shall remain suspended until ten
days after the termination of the mediation. The mediator
of any dispute submitted to mediationunder this Agreement
shall not serve as arbitrator of such dispute unless otherwise

SECTION 01160 — SITE CONDITIONS
PART 1 - SITE INVESTIGATIONS AND REPRESENTATION
1.01 General Investigations
A. The Contractor acknowledges that he has satisfied himself as to the nature and location of the work, the
general and local conditions, particularly those bearing upon access to the site; handling, storage, and
disposal of materials; availability of water, electricity and roads; uncertainties of weather, or similar
physical conditions at the site; the conformation and conditions of the ground; the equipment and
facilities needed preliminary to and during the execution of the work; and all other matters which can
in any way affect the work or the cost thereof under this Contract.
1.02 Soil Conditions
A. The Contractor further acknowledges that he has satisfied himself as to the character, quality and
quantity of surface and subsurface materials to be encountered from his inspection of the site and from
reviewing any available records of exploratory work furnished by the Owner or included in these
Documents. Failure by the Contractor to acquaint himself with the physical conditions of the site and
all the available information will not relieve him from responsibility for properly estimating the
difficulty or cost of successfully performing the work.
1.03 Contractor Representation
A. The Contractor warrants that as a result of his examination and investigation of all the aforesaid data
that he can perform the work in a good and workmanlike manner and to the satisfaction of the Owner.
The Owner assumes no responsibility for any representations made by any of its officers or agents

the Contract, and (2) the Contract expressly provides that the responsibility therefore is assumed by the
Owner.
PART 2 - INFORMATION ON SITE CONDITIONS
2.01 General
Any information obtained by the Engineer regarding site conditions, subsurface information,
groundwater elevations, existing construction of site facilities, and similar data will be available for
inspection, as applicable, at the office of the Engineer upon request. Such information is offered as
supplementary information only. Neither the Engineer nor the Owner assumes any responsibility for
the completeness or interpretation of such supplementary information.
A. Differing Subsurface Conditions:
1. In the event that the subsurface or latent physical conditions are found materially different from
those indicated in these Documents, and differing materially from those ordinarily encountered and
generally recognized as inherent in the character of work covered in these Contract Documents,
the Contractor shall promptly, and before such conditions are disturbed, notify the Owner in
writing of such changed conditions.
2. The Engineer will investigate such conditions promptly and following this investigation, the
Contractor shall proceed with the work, unless otherwise instructed by the Engineer. If the
Engineer finds that such conditions do so materially differ and cause an increase or decrease in the
cost of or in the time required for performing the work, the Engineer will recommend to the Owner
the amount of adjustment in cost and time he considers reasonable. The Owner will make the final
decision on all Change Orders to the Contract regarding any adjustment in cost or time for
completion.

SECTION 01310 - CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULES
PART 1-GENERAL
1.01 General
A. It is the intent of the Owner to begin construction on approximately February 1, 2006. The signing of
the contract and issuance of a Notice to Proceed will be completed promptly to accomplish that
objective. The Notice to Proceed will authorize the Contractor to begin project administration and
construction work on the site. Construction work shall not begin on site prior to the pre -construction
conference.
B. The Contractor shall complete all work, as specified in the Agreement, subject to the "Liquidated
Damages" provision described under "Instructions to Bidders."
C. Delays during project contract period outside control of the Contractor are subject to time extension
consideration but not financial compensation unless such delay is significant enough to reasonably
require Owner initiated work suspension (demobilization) as determined in the field by the Owner at
the time of occurrence. See Paragraph 1.04 for requirements for modifying the Contract Time due to
weather delays.
D. Contractor shall plan and schedule his own work effort (personnel, equipment and material) to
complete the project satisfactorily within the project time limits. Such schedule shall be in general
conformance with the schedule submitted at the pre -construction conference. This includes the
requirement that the Contractor conduct his operations to enable a shift of work effort from one part of
the project to another to reasonably accommodate unexpected delays, and to conduct his daily
operations so as to not create a public nuisance including but not limited to access or traffic
obstruction, dust and mud generation, work outside of construction limits, noise, unsatisfactory cleanup
or site restoration, unacceptable equipment/materials staging, flooding, etc. No work is to begin at the
site until Cit 's acceptance of the Construction Schedule.
E. Contractor shall prepare and submit a Critical Path Method (CPM) schedule. The schedule shall show
all work completed within the contract time and shall cover the time from the date of Notice to Proceed
to the completion date. Contractor shall use Microsoft Project 2000 or approved equivalent to develop
and manage the CPM schedule.
F. Schedule shall include milestones that demonstrate the Contractor's approach to completing the project
within project time limits. Milestones shall be of sufficient number to indicate regular progress of
work and shall identify major components of the work. Milestones are subject to Owner approval prior
to work beginning at the site. If Contractor fails to meet a milestone, contractor shall submit an
updated schedule subject to Owner approval and demonstrate how the remaining milestones will be
met. The Owner may order work shut down or suspended for nonconformance with the approved
schedule (See Paragraph G. below)
G. Milestones (minimum required items) The following items shall be indicated on the schedule with
completion dates:
H. The Contractor may voluntarily shut down or suspend work due to conditions beyond his control
provided a minimum of 24 hours notice is provided to the Owner together with the reasons for subject
suspension of work. The Contractor shall leave the project conditions in such a way so as not to cause
a public nuisance or a threat to public safety. Neither remobilization costs nor additional time will be
allowed for such suspension unless agreed to in writing in advance.
I. The Owner or Engineer may order work shut down or suspended for such nonconformance issues as
unsafe conditions, nonconformance with schedule, cause of public nuisance, unnecessary private
property disturbance, materials and labor unsuited to the task, nonconformance to technical
specifications, failure to comply with permits, etc. The Owner or Engineer will give a written warning
to the Contractor with a specified deadline during which time the Contractor shall remedy the cause(s)
described on the warning. Failure to do so shall justify the Owner or Engineer to order work shut down
City of Fort Collins — Soft Gold Park SECTION 01310 — CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULES
Park Planning & Development Division Page 1 of 4
or suspended. Such shutdown will not be compensated by cost reimbursement or time schedule
adjustment.
J. Failure to promptly execute the approved schedule in the judgment of the Owner will result in a written
warning submitted to the Contractor explaining the specific compliance needed. Failure of the
Contractor to remedy the noted items may be considered a breach of contract possibly leading to work
shutdown for cause or contract termination.
1.02 Format and Submissions
A. Prepare Construction and Procurement schedules in a graphic format suitable for displaying schedule
and actual progress.
B. Submit two copies of each schedule to owner for review. Owner will return one copy to contractor with
revisions suggested or necessary for coordination of the Work with the needs of Owner or others.
1.03 Progress Revisions
A. A schedule update shall be submitted to the Owner at each weekly progress meeting that will reflect
work performed in the previous week and the upcoming two-(2) weeks. Schedule updates shall not
change any Contract times.
B. A complete schedule update shall be submitted with each application for progress payment.
C. Show changes occurring since previous submission.
1. Actual progress of each item to date.
2. Revised projections of progress and completion.
D. Provide a narrative report as needed to define:
1. Anticipated problems, recommended actions, and their effects on the schedule.
2. The effect of changes on schedules of other work.
1.04 Modifications to Time of Completion in the Approved Schedule
A. The date of beginning and the times for completion of the work are essential conditions of the Contract
Documents and the work embraced shall be commenced on a date specified in the Notice to Proceed.
The Contractor will proceed with the work at such rate of progress to ensure full completion within the
contract time. It is expressly understood and agreed, by and between the Contractor and the Owner
that the contract time for the completion of the work described herein is a reasonable time, taking into
consideration the climatic and other factors prevailing in the locality of the work.
Every effort shall be made by the Contractor to complete the project within the "Contract Time" shown
in the proposal. The "Contract Time" anticipates a "Normal" weather and climate condition in and
around the vicinity of the Project site during the times of year that the construction will be carried out.
Extensions of time based upon weather conditions shall be granted only if the Contractor demonstrates
clearly that such conditions were "unusually severe," would not have been reasonably anticipated, and
that such conditions adversely affected the Contractor's work and thus required additional time to
complete the work.
B. The following specifies the procedure for the determination of time extensions for unusually severe
weather. The listing below defines the anticipated number of calendar days lost to adverse weather for
each month and is based upon National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) or similar
data for the geographic location of the project.
Monthly Anticipated Calendar Days Lost to Adverse Weather Conditions

JAN FEB MAR APR MAY JUN JUL AUG SEP OCT NOV DEC
(7) (4) (4) (4) (6) (3) (4) (2) (3) (3) (2) (5)
The above schedule of anticipated adverse weather will constitute the base line for monthly (or portion
thereof) weather time evaluations. Upon acknowledgment of the Notice to Proceed and continuing
throughout the contract on a monthly basis, actual adverse weather days and the impact of adverse
weather days that delay the work will be recorded on a day-to-day basis. It is assumed that the work
will be carried out Mondays through Fridays (holidays excepted) unless an approved construction
schedule or written authorization from the Owner indicates otherwise. The number of days of delayed
work due to adverse weather or the impact thereof will then be compared to the monthly adverse
weather schedule above.
An actual adverse weather day must prevent work for 50 percent or more of the Contractor's workday,
delay work critical to the timely completion of the project, and be documented by the Contractor. The
City Representative observing the construction shall determine on a daily basis whether or not work
can proceed or if work is delayed due to adverse weather or the effects thereof. The Contractor shall
notify the Construction Coordinator in writing of any disagreement as to whether or not work can
proceed on a given date, within 2 calendar days of that date. The Owner will use the above written
notification in determining the number of working days for which work was delayed during each
month.
C. At the end of each month, if the number of working days for which work was delayed due to adverse
weather exceeds that shown in the above schedule, a Change Order will be executed which increases
the Contract Time. The number of workdays delayed due to adverse weather or the impact thereof will
then be converted to Calendar Days based on the contract completion day and date. This conversion
assumes a 5-day work week, Mondays through Fridays, holidays excepted; should the Contractor have
authorization to work weekends and/or holidays, then the method of conversion of workdays to
calendar days would take this into consideration. The contract time period will then be increased by the
number of calendar days calculated above and a new contract completion day and date will be set.
D. The Contractor's schedule must reflect the above -anticipated adverse weather delays on all weather -
dependent activities.
E. While extensions of time shall be granted for "unusually severe" weather or climate conditions, the
Owner shall make no monetary compensation for any costs to the Contractor arising out of such delays.
The Contractor shall comply with the portions of the Contract Documents relating to his project
schedule and amendments thereto which result from the "unusually severe" weather condition.
F. Breakdowns in equipment or lack of performance by the Contractor will not be considered justification
for an extension of time. Liquidated damages will be assessed as delineated elsewhere.
G. The Contractor shall not be charged with liquidated damages or any excess cost when the delay in
completion of the work is due to the following, and the Contractor has promptly given written notice of
such delay to the Owner or Engineer.
1. To any preference, priority, or allocation order duly issued by the Owner.
2. To unforeseeable causes beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of the Contractor,
including but not restricted to, acts of God, or of the public enemy, acts of the Owner, acts of
another Contractor in the performance of a contract with the Owner, fires, floods, epidemics,
quarantine restrictions, strikes, freight embargoes, and abnormal and unforeseeable weather as
provided above; and
3. To any delays of Subcontractors occasioned by any of the causes specified in paragraphs 1 and 2,
above.
1.05 City's Responsibility
A. City's review is only for the purpose of checking conformity with the Contract Documents and
assisting Contractor in coordinating the Work with the needs of the Project.

SECTION 02240 - WATER CONTROL AND DEWATERING
PART GENERAL
1.01 SECTION INCLUDES
A. The work of this section consists of controlling groundwater, site drainage, and storm flows during
construction. The CONTRACTOR is cautioned that the work involves construction in and around
drainage channels, local streams or rivers, and areas of local drainage. These areas are subject to
frequent periodic inundation.
1.02 RELATED SECTIONS
A. Section 02315 — Excavation and Embankments
PART2 PRODUCTS
2.01 MATERIALS
A. On -site materials may be used within the limits of construction to construct temporary dams and
berms. The materials such as plastic sheeting, sand bags, and storm sewer pipe may also be used if
desired by the CONTRACTOR.
PART 3 EXECUTION
3.01 CONSTRUCTION REQUIREMENTS
A. General: For all excavation, the CONTRACTOR shall provide suitable equipment and labor to
remove water, and he shall keep the excavation dewatered so that construction can be carried on
under dewatered conditions where required by the Drawings and Specifications. Water control
shall be accomplished such that no damage is done to adjacent channel banks or structures. The
CONTRACTOR is responsible for investigating and familiarizing himself with all site conditions
that may affect the work including surface water, level of groundwater and the time of year the
work is to be done. All excavations made as part of dewatering operations shall be backfilted with
the same type material as was removed and compacted to 95% of Maximum Standard Proctor
Density (ASTM D698) except where replacement by other materials and/or methods are required.
The CONTRACTOR shall conduct his operation in such a manner that storm or other waters may
proceed uninterrupted along their existing drainage courses. By submitting a bid, the
CONTRACTOR acknowledges that he has investigated the risk arising from such waters and has
prepared his bid accordingly, and assumes all of said risk. At no time during construction shall the
CONTRACTOR affect existing surface or subsurface drainage patterns of adjacent property. Any
damage to adjacent property resulting from the CONTRACTOR's alteration of surface or
subsurface drainage patterns shall be repaired by the CONTRACTOR at no additional
cost to the OWNER. CONTRACTOR shall remove all temporary water control facilities when
they are no longer needed or at the completion of the project. Pumps and generators used for
dewatering and water control shall be quiet equipment enclosed in sound deadening devices.
B. Surface Water Control: Surface water control generally falls in to the following categories
Normal low flows along the channel;
Storm/flood flows along the channel;
City of Fort Collins Section 02204— Water Control and Dewatering
Park Planning & Development Division Page 1 of 2
3. Flows from existing storm drain pipelines; and,
4. Local surface inflows not conveyed by pipelines.
C. The CONTRACTOR shall coordinate, evaluate, design, construct, and maintain temporary water
conveyance systems. These systems shall not worsen flooding, alter major flow paths, or worsen
flow characteristics during construction. The CONTRACTOR is responsible to ensure that any
such worsening of flooding does not occur. The CONTRACTOR is solely responsible for
determining the methods and adequacy of water control measures.
D. At a minimum, the CONTRACTOR will be responsible for diverting the quantity of surface flow
around the construction area so that the excavations will remain free of surface water for the time it
takes to install these materials, and the time required for curing of any concrete or grout. The
CONTRACTOR is cautioned that the minimum quantity of water to be diverted is for erosion
control and construction purposes and not for general protection of the construction -site. It shall be
the CONTRACTOR's responsibility to determine the quantity of water which shall be diverted to
protect his work from damage caused by storm water.
E. The CONTRACTOR shall, at all times, maintain a flow path for all channels. Temporary
structures such as berms, sandbags, pipeline diversions, etc., may be permitted for the control of
channel flow, as long as such measures are not a major obstruction to flood flows, do not worsen
flooding, or alter historic flow routes.
Groundwater Control: The CONTRACTOR shall install adequate measures to maintain the level of
groundwater below the foundation subgrade elevation and maintain sufficient bearing capacity for
all structures, pipelines, earthwork, and rock work. Such measures may include, but are not limited
to, installation of perimeter subdrains, pumping from drilled holes or by pumping from sumps
excavated below the subgrade elevation. The foundation bearing surfaces are to be kept dewatered
and stable until the structures or other types of work are complete and backfilled. Disturbance of
foundation subgrade by CONTRACTOR operations shall not be considered as originally
unsuitable foundation subgrade and shall be repaired at Contractor's expense.
G. Any temporary dewatering trenches or well points shall be restored following dewatering
operations to reduce permeability in those areas as approved by the ENGINEER.

PART PRODUCTS
2.01 MATERIALS
A. Embankment material may consist of approved material acquired from excavations or material
hauled from outside the project limits. Suitable material identified on -site shall be used first for
embankments and backfill. Excess excavated native soils which are not used as embankment or
backfill shall become the property of the CONTRACTOR and shall be disposed of off -site by the
CONTRACTOR, in a location acceptable to the ENGINEER.
B. Muck excavation encountered in all areas other then within the lakes shall also include the
replacement of excavated muck with uniformly graded rock, riprap, on -site or imported soils, or
other material whichever is most suitable for the specific situation encountered. The ENGINEER
will determine which type of aggregate or other material which shall be used after observing the
specific site conditions.
PART 3 EXECUTION
3.01 GENERAL EXCAVATIONIEMBANKMENT
A. General: The excavation and embankment for the project work shall be finished to reasonably
smooth and uniform surfaces. Variation from the subgrade plane shall not be more than .08 feet in
soil or more than .08 feet above or .50 below in rock. Materials shall not be wasted without
permission of the ENGINEER. Excavation operations shall be conducted so that material outside of
the limits of slopes will not be disturbed.
B. When the CONTRACTOR's excavating operations encounter remains of pre -historic people's
dwelling sites or artifacts of historical or archaeological significance, the operations, shall be
temporarily discontinued. The ENGINEER will contact archaeological authorities to determine the
disposition thereof. When directed, the CONTRACTOR shall excavate the site in such a manner as
to preserve the artifacts encountered and shall remove them for delivery to the custody of the proper
state authorities. Such excavation will be considered and paid for as extra work.
C. Excavation:
Unclassified: All excess suitable material excavated from the project site and not used for
embankment shall be removed from the project site and become the property of the
CONTRACTOR. Where material encountered within the limit of the work is considered
unsuitable for embankment (fills) on any portion of this project work, such material shall
be excavated as directed by the ENGINEER and replaced with suitable fill material. All
unsuitable excavated material from excavation consisting of any type of debris (surface or
buried), excavated rock, bedrock or rocks larger than 6 inches in diameter and boulders
shall be hauled from the project site and disposed of. Debris is defined as "anything that is
not earth which exists at the job site".
Muck: Where excavation to the finished grade section results in a subgrade or slopes of
unsuitable soil, the ENGINEER may require the CONTRACTOR to remove the unsuitable
materials and backfill to the finished graded section with approved material. Disposal of
the material shall be at the CONTRACTOR's expense.
Good surface drainage shall be provided around all permanent cuts to direct surface runoff
away from the cut face.
Rock: Unless otherwise specified, rock shall be excavated to a minimum depth of 0.5 feet
below subgrade within the limits of the channel area, and the excavation shall be backfilled
with material shown on the Drawings or as designated by the ENGINEER. Disposal of
material and replacement with suitable approved material shall be at the CONTRACTOR's
expense.

D. Embankment Construction: Embankment construction shall consist of constructing all fill areas,
including preparation of the areas upon which they are to be placed, and the placing and compacting
of embankment material in holes, pits and other depressions within the project area. Only approved
materials shall be used in the construction of embankments and backfills.
Approved materials shall consist of clean on -site cohesive soils or approved imported soils. On -site
cohesive soils are suitable for use as compacted fill provided the following recommendations are
met:
Excavation and Embankment will only be paid when a significant change in grade is required, as
determined by the ENGINEER. Minor cuts and fills will be considered incidental to the work, and
will not be paid for separately under this section.

On -site cohesive soils or imported soils should be placed and compacted in horizontal lifts, using
equipment and procedures that will produce recommended moisture contents and densities
throughout the lift and embankment height. On -site or imported cohesive soils should be compacted
within a moisture content range of 2% below, to 2% above optimum moisture content and
compacted to 95% of the Maximum Standard Proctor Density (ASTM D698).
When embankment is to be placed and compacted on hillsides, or when new embankment is to be
compacted against existing embankments, or when embankment is built 1/2 width at a time, the
slopes that are steeper than 4:1 when measured longitudinally or at right angles to the adjacent
ground shall be continuously benched over those areas where it is required as the work is brought up
in layers. Benching shall be well keyed and where practical a minimum of 8 feet. Each horizontal
cut shall begin at the intersection of the original ground and the vertical sides of the previous cuts.
Material thus cut out shall be recompacted along with the new embankment material at the
CONTRACTOR'S expense.
The ground surface underlying all fills shall be carefully prepared by removing all organic matter,
scarification to a depth of 8 inches and recompacting to 95% of the Maximum Standard Proctor
Density (ASTM D698) at optimum moisture content + or - 2% prior to fill placement.
Embankment material shall be placed in horizontal layers not exceeding 8 inches (loose
measurement) and shall be compacted to 95% of the Maximum Standard Proctor Density (ASTM
D698) at optimum moisture content + or - 2%. Effective spreading equipment shall be used on each
lift to obtain uniform thickness prior to compacting. As the compaction of each layer progresses,
continuous leveling and manipulating will be required to assure uniform density.
For embankments which serve as berms, the downstream portion shall be "keyed" into the
subsurface soils a minimum of 3 feet to enhance the stability of the slope.
Materials which are removed from excavations beneath the water table may be over the optimum
moisture content and will require that they be dried out prior to reusing them.

3.01 Construction Requirements
A. Channel slopes, bottoms, or other areas that are to be protected with riprap shall be free of brush,
trees, stumps, and other objectionable material and be graded to a smooth compacted surface. The
City of Fort Collins Section 02375 — Riprap, Bedding and Feature Rock
Park Planning & Development Division Page 1 of 3
CONTRACTOR shall excavate areas to receive riprap to the subgrade for granular bedding. The
subgrade for bedding materials shall be stable. If unsuitable materials are encountered, they shall be
removed and replaced as Muck Excavation in accordance with Section 02315 of the Specifications.
Unsuitable materials shall be disposed of from the site by the CONTRACTOR at his expense. After
an acceptable subgrade for granular bedding material is established, the bedding shall be
immediately placed and leveled to the subgrade elevation. Immediately following this, the riprap
shall be placed. If bedding material is disturbed for any reason, it shall be replaced and graded at
the CONTRACTOR's expense. In -place bedding materials shall not be contaminated with soils,
debris or vegetation before the riprap is placed. If contaminated, the bedding material shall be
removed and replaced at the CONTRACTOR's expense.
3.02 Placement
A. Following acceptable placement of granular bedding, riprap placement shall commence as follows:
l . Machine Placed Riprap: Riprap shall be placed on the prepared slope or channel bottom
areas in a manner which will produce a reasonably well -graded mass of stone with
the minimum practicable percentage of voids. Riprap shall be machine placed, unless
otherwise stipulated in the Drawings or Specifications.
When riprap is placed on slopes, placement shall commence at the bottom of the slopes
working up the slope. Place the riprap in a stepped fashion with the bottom of the uphill
riprap below the top of the downhill riprap by half of the height of the riprap minimum.
The entire mass of riprap shall be placed on either channel slopes or bottoms so as to be in
conformance with the required gradation mixtures and to lines, grades, and thickness
shown on the Drawings. Riprap shall be placed to its full course thickness at one operation
and in such a manner as to avoid displacing the underlying bedding material. Placing of
riprap in layers, or by dumping into chutes, or by similar methods shall not be permitted.
All material going into riprap protection for channel slopes or bottoms shall be so placed
and distributed that there will be no large accumulations of either the larger or smaller sizes
of stone. Some hand placement may be required to achieve this distribution.
It is the intent of these Specifications to produce a fairly compact riprap protection in
which all sizes of material are placed in their proper proportions. Unless otherwise
authorized by the ENGINEER, the riprap protection shall be placed in conjunction with
the construction of embankments or channel bottoms with only sufficient delay in
construction of the riprap protection, as may be necessary, to allow for proper construction
of the portion of the embankment and channel bottom which is to be protected. The
CONTRACTOR shall maintain the riprap protection until accepted. Any material
displaced for any reason shall be replaced to the lines and grades shown on the Drawings at
no additional cost to the OWNER. If the bedding materials are removed or disturbed, such
material shall be replaced prior to replacing the displaced riprap.
2. Hand Placed Riprap: Hand placed riprap shall be performed during machine placement of
riprap and shall conform to all the requirements of Section 02375 PART 2 above. Hand
placed riprap shall also be required when the depth of riprap is less than 2 times the
nominal stone size, or when required by the Drawings or Specifications.
After the riprap has been placed, hand placing or rearranging of individual stones by
mechanical equipment shall be required to the extent necessary to secure a flat uniform
surface and the specified depth of riprap, to the lines and grades as shown on the Drawings.
3. Soil Replacement In and Over Riprap: Where riprap is designated to be buried, place
onsite excavated material that is free from trash and organic matter in riprap voids by
washing and rodding. Prevent excessive washing of material into stream. When voids are
filled and the surface accepted by the ENGINEER, place a nominal 6 inches of soil over
the area, or as designated on the Drawings. Fine grade, seed, and mulch per the
Specifications.

4. Rejection of Work and Materials: The ENGINEER shall reject placed riprap which does
not conform to this Section and the CONTRACTOR shall immediately remove and relay
the riprap to conform with said sections.
Riprap shall be rejected, which is either delivered to the job site or placed, that does not
conform to this Section. Rejected riprap shall be removed from the project site by the
CONTRACTOR and at his expense.
B. Sitting rock and Stepping Stone placement:
Place sitting rocks with flat side up. Bury rock approximately 1/3 the height of the rock.

City of Fort Collins Section 07900 — Joint Sealers
Park Planning & Development Division Page 2 of 5
B. Acceptance: Beginning of installation means acceptance of existing conditions.
3.02 Preparation
A. Preparation of Surfaces
1. Clean surfaces in accordance with manufacturer0s recommendations.
2. Mask edges, if required to protect adjoining surfaces and produce a straight finish
line.
3. Clean joint surfaces immediately before installation of sealant. Remove dirt, insecure
coatings, moisture and other substances which would interfere with bond of sealant.
4. Do not proceed with installation of sealant over joint surfaces which have been painted,
lacquered, waterproofed or treated with water repellent or other treatment of coating.
Remove coating or treatment joint surfaces before installing sealant.
5. Each concrete masonry joint surfaces to remove excess alkalinity unless sealant
manufacturer0s printed instruction indicates that alkalinity does not interfere with sealant
bond and performance. Etch with 5% solution of muriatic acid, neutralize with diluted
ammonia solution, rinse thoroughly with water and allow to dry before sealant
installation.
B. Priming: If required, prime surfaces which are to be caulked with manufacturer0s recommended or
standard primer, after the surfaces have been prepared as specified. Before use, check primers for
discoloration and dirt pick-up on adjacent surfaces. If staining occurs, after exposure, take
adequate measures to prevent the primer from being applied over the face of adjacent porous
materials by masking or other suitable measures.
C. Joint Backing:
1. Joints shall be of depth necessary to provide for the specified allowable thickness of
sealant and also the required backing where and as specified. Provide backing of extent
and type as specified and required to provide for the allowable depth of the sealant.
2. Back-up Materials for Sealants: Non -staining, compatible with the sealant and primer,
shall be of a resilient nature and as recommended by the manufacturer of the sealant.
Size and shape of the backing shall be as required by the width of the joint and specified.
Do not use materials impregnated with oil, solvents, or bituminous materials.
3. Compress backing material a minimum of 30% when inserted in the joint. Backing
material for the upper portion of joint shall be a round rod or semi -circular in cross-
section with the arc in contact with the sealant.
D. Bond Breaker Tape: Install where indicated and as required by manufacturer's recommendations
to ensure that sealants will perform properly.
3.03 Application
A. Exterior Metal Sills: Set in full bed of polyurethane sealant.
B. Thresholds: Set in full bed of latex acrylic sealant.
C. Caulk Joints:
I. Apply sealants in continuous beads without open joints, voids, or air pockets, using a
ratchet hand gun or mechanical powered gun.
2. Confine sealants to joint areas with masking tapes or other precautions. Apply
compounds in concealed compression joints accurately so that excess compound will not
extrude from joints.
City of Fort Collins Section 07900 — Joint Sealers
Park Planning & Development Division Page 3 of 5
3. Remove excess compound or sealant promptly as work progressess, and clean adjoining
surfaces.
4. In rough surfaces orjoints of uneven widths, install sealant, well back into joint. Recess
equal to width of joint, or 3/8" minimum at masonry.
5. Use anti -tack agent where necessary to protect freshly applied sealant from public traffic
and dirt.
6. Slightly recessed joints as to facilitate a painter0s line. Handtool and finish joints
throughout construction.
7. Comply with manufacturerOs printed instructions and specifications.
D. Concrete Paving Expansion Joints: Cut expansion joint filler down to allow joint depth equal to
75% of joint width, but neither more than 0.625" deep nor less than 0.375" deep. Seal over
expansion joint filler with poured sealant.
E. Workmanship: Employ only proven installation techniques, which will ensure that sealants will be
deposited in uniform, continuous ribbons without gaps or air pockets, with complete OwettingB of
the joint bond surfaces equally on opposite sides. Except as otherwise indicated, fill sealant rabbet
to a slightly concave surface, slightly below adjoining surfaces. Where horizontal joints are
between a horizontal surface and a vertical surface, fill joint to form a slight cove, so that joint will
not trap moisture and dirt.
F. Joint Sizes: Install sealants to depths as indicated or, as recommended by the sealant manufacturer
but within the following general limitations:
1. For normal moving joints sealed with elastomeric sealants but not subject to traffic, fill
joints to a depth equal to 50% of joint width, but not more than 1/2" deep or less than
If4" deep.
2. For joints sealed with non-elastomeric sealants and caulking compounds, fill joints to a
depth in the range of 75% to 125% of joint width.
G. Spillage:
1. Do not allow sealants or compounds to overflow or spill onto adjoining surfaces, or to
migrate into the voids of adjoining surfaces. Use masking tape or other precautionary
devices to prevent staining of adjoining surfaces, by either the primer/sealer or the
sealant.
2. Remove excess and spillage of compounds promptly as the work progresses. Clean the
adjoining surfaces by whatever means may be necessary to eliminate evidence of
spillage. Do not damage the adjoining surfaces or finishes.
3.04 FIELD QUALITY CONTROL

Special Notice
Contractors who have completed this application in the past, please note the following changes in procedure
The Department will no longer issue individual Certificates of exem ption to subcontractors. Only prime contrac-
tors will receive a Contractor's Exemption Certificate on exempt projects.
Upon receipt of the Certificate, the prime contractor should make a copy for each subcontractor involved in the
project and complete it by filling in the subcontractor's name and address and signing it.
The original Certificate should always be retained by the prime contractor. Copies of all Certificates that the
prime contractor issued to subcontractors should be kept at the prime.contractor's place of business for a
minimum of three years and be available for inspection in the event of an audit.
Once an 89# has been assigned to.you, please use the next five numbers following it for any applications
submitted for future projects. This should be your permanent number. For instance, if you were assigned 89-
12345-0001, every application submitted thereafter should contain 89-12345 on the application. The succeed-
ing numbers will be issued by the Department of Revenue. DO NOT enter what you believe to be the next in
sequence as this may delay processing of your application.

PART 3 — EXECUTION
3.01 Subgrade Preparation
A. Grade subgrade surfaces to lines and grades with an allowance for riprap and
bedding or native streambed riprap where indicated on the plans. Remove
organic materials and compact soft subgrade soils. When fill to achieve
subgrade lines is required, provide structural backfill or granular bedding.
B. Materials shall not be placed until foundation preparation is completed and
subgrade surfaces have been approved.
3.02 Fabric Installation
A. Provide fabric under all riprap, unless otherwise shown. Install fabric as shown
and in accordance with manufacturer's recommendations.
B. Surface to receive fabric shall be smooth and free of obstructions, depressions,
and debris. Lay fabric parallel to direction of water flow.
C. If lapping of fabric is required, minimum overlap shall be 2 ft. Overlaps may be
eliminated if fabric sections are either factory or field sewn. Seam strength shall
be at least 80% of fabric tensile strength.
D. Secure fabric in place to prevent shifting before or during placement of stone or
riprap.
E. Repair or replace torn or punctured fabric in accordance with manufacturer's
instructions; no extra compensation will be allowed.
3.03 Aggregate Bedding Placement
A. Where indicated, place aggregate bedding to receive riprap; spread material
uniformly on prepared subgrade to depth specified. Unless otherwise noted,
compaction of aggregate bedding and filter layers is not required but surface
shall be finished reasonably free of mounds, dips and windrows.
3.04 Equipment -Placed Rock Riprap
A. Riprap shall be placed on the prepared slope or channel bottom areas in a
manner which will produce a reasonably well -graded mass of stone with the
minimum practicable percentage of voids. Riprap shall be machine placed,
unless otherwise stipulated in the Drawings or Specifications.
When riprap is placed on slopes, placement shall commence at the bottom of the
slopes working up the slope. Place the riprap in a stepped fashion with the
bottom of the uphill riprap below the top of the downhill riprap by half of the
height of the riprap minimum.
The entire mass of riprap shall be placed on either channel slopes or bottoms so
as to be in conformance with the required gradation mixtures and to lines,
grades, and thickness shown on the Drawings. Riprap shall be placed to its full
course thickness at one operation and in such a manner as to avoid displacing

materially from conditions ordinarily encountered
and generally recognized as inherent in work of
the character provided for in the Contract
Documents; then
CONTRACTOR shall, promptly immediately after
becoming aware thereof and before further disturbing
conditions affected thereby or performing any Work in
connection therewith (except in an emergency as
permitted by paragraph 623), notify OWNER and
ENGINEER in writing about such condition.
CONTRACTOR shall not further disturb such conditions
or perform any Work in connection therewith (except as
aforesaid) until receipt of written order to do so.
4.2.4. ENGINEER's Review: ENGINEER will
promptly review the pertinent conditions, determine the
necessity of OWNER's obtaining additional exploration or
tests with respect thereto and advise OWNER in writing
(with a copy to CONTRACTOR) of ENGINEER's

consequences of such change.
4.2.6. Possible Price and Times Ac¢usdnents: An
equitable adjustment in the Contract Price or in the
Contract Times, or both, will be allowed to the extent that
the existence of such uncovered or revealed condition
causes an increase or decrease in CONTRACTOR's cost
of, or time required for performance oh the Work; subject,
however, to the following:
4.2.6.1. such condition must meet any one or
more of the categories described in
paragraphs 4.2.3.1 through 4.2.3.4, inclusive,
4.2.6.2. a change in the Contract Documents
pursuant to paragraph 4.2.5 will not be an
automatic authorization of nor a condition
precedent to entitlement to any such adjustment;
4.2.6.3. with respect to Work that is paid for
on a Unit Price Basis, any adjustment in Contract
Price will be subject to the provisions of
paragraphs 9.10 and 11.9; and
4.2.6.4. CONTRACTOR shall not be entitled
to any adjustment in the Contract Price or Times
if;
4.2.6.4.1. CONTRACTOR knew of
the existence of such conditions at the

the underlying bedding material. Placing of riprap in layers, or by dumping into
chutes, or by similar methods shall not be permitted.
All material going into riprap protection for channel slopes or bottoms shall be so
placed and distributed that there will be no large accumulations of either the
larger or smaller sizes of stone. Some hand placement may be required to
achieve this distribution.
It is the intent of these Specifications to produce a fairly compact riprap
protection in which all sizes of material are placed in their proper proportions.
Unless otherwise authorized by the ENGINEER, the riprap protection shall be
placed in conjunction with the construction of embankments or channel bottoms
with only sufficient delay in construction of the riprap protection, as may be
necessary, to allow for proper construction of the portion of the embankment and
channel bottom which is to be protected. The CONTRACTOR shall maintain the
riprap protection until accepted. Any material displaced for any reason shall be
replaced to the lines and grades shown on the Drawings at no additional cost to
the OWNER. If the bedding materials are removed or disturbed, such material
shall be replaced prior to replacing the displaced riprap.
B. Hand placement will be required where necessary to correct obvious
irregularities and to prevent damage to adjacent improvements and wherever
equipment placement methods are unsatisfactory.
Hand placed riprap shall be performed during machine placement of riprap and
shall conform to all the requirements of Section 02375. Hand placed riprap shall
also be required when the depth of riprap is less than 2 times the nominal stone
size, or when required by the Drawings or Specifications.
After the riprap has been placed, hand placing or rearranging of individual stones
by mechanical equipment shall be required to the extent necessary to secure a
flat uniform surface and the specified depth of riprap, to the lines and grades as
shown on the Drawings._
Riprap shall be securely bedded with larger rocks firmly in contact one to
another. Spaces between larger rocks shall be filled with smaller rocks. Smaller
rocks shall not be grouped as a substitute for larger rock. Flat slab rock shall be
laid on edge.
C. Soil Replacement In and Over Riprap: Where riprap is designated to be buried,
place onsite excavated material that is free from trash and organic matter in
riprap voids by washing and rodding. Prevent excessive washing of material into
stream. When voids are filled and the surface accepted by the ENGINEER,
place a nominal 6 inches of soil over the area, or as designated on the Drawings.
Fine grade, seed, and mulch per the Specifications.
